Israel-Iran war live: Blow to Iran's nuclear program remains unclear, Israel claims Tehran set back 'years'
The blow to Iran's nuclear program from US and Israeli strikes remains unclear as Israel announces Tehran has been set "years back".
Donald Trump claims his country's bombing campaign had "obliterated" three of Iran's nuclear sites, but the UN nuclear chief says Tehran's enriched uranium may have survived.
The US president and Iranian officials will sit down next week for talks, boosting hopes of a longer-term peace.
It comes as a ceasefire between Iran and Israel, which got off to a shaky start earlier this week, appears to be holding.

Inside the six-day siege of the Iranian Embassy in London
On the morning of 30 April, 1980, a group of armed men invaded the Iranian Embassy in London. They took 26 people hostage, including staff, visitors and a police officer and issued demands in the name of a cause almost no one had ever heard of. The 'Group of the Martyr', a collection of Iranian Arabs, wanted independence for their province of Iran, but their demands were impossible for the British Government to meet, and so the then-little known Special Air Service (SAS) were told to plan an invasion of the building to rescue the hostages. The six-day siege was eventually broken by the SAS, and their storming of the embassy galvanised the world as people watched it all unfold on live television. Historian and author Ben McIntyre takes a deeper look at this dramatic siege and rescue operation, uncovering the real, powerful story of ordinary people responding as best they could to lethal jeopardy. Further information The Siege is published by Penguin Random House. This episode was recorded live at the 2025 Sydney Writers' Festival.

Why the US will remain the world's policeman
I take it we all agree now that he isn't an 'isolationist'. A word that should never have been applied to Donald Trump in the first place went up in smoke at the weekend, along with an unknown amount of Iran's nuclear program. The US bombings were consistent with his strike against Syria in 2017, against the leader of the militant group ISIS in 2019 and against Iran's most senior general in 2020. Given all the abstract nouns that fit Trump well — jingoism, unilateralism, anti-Europeanism — it is a wonder that isolationism ever saw daylight. It is not even clear that he opposed the Iraq war as a private citizen in 2003.

‘Personal frustration': Megyn Kelly defends Donald Trump's viral f-bomb moment
The Megyn Kelly Show host Megyn Kelly has commented on US President Donald Trump dropping the f-bomb while talking about the ceasefire violation earlier this week between Israel and Iran. 'He did it intentionally. Trump knows what he's doing, especially when it comes to marketing and messaging and I'm sure he is incredibly frustrated with these powers,' she told Sky News host Paul Murray. 'Dealing with the Middle East is especially sticky. 'I think that's what we were hearing ... with the use of the f-bomb, just his personal frustration at the impossibility of this conflict.'
